We went to Jackson!

We loaded the car on Friday for very brief little get-a-way. We headed to Jackson to visit our good buddy, Uncle Tuck at his "cawedge." Tuck is at Union this semester and loving it. The boys and I went to hang with him on Friday night and then head over to Memphis with him the next morning. We picked him up early and headed downtown. Here the boys are outside of the Fed* Ex forum, where Tuck he just been the night before at the John M. concert.


Our main reason for the Memphis visit was to get the big boys in our group some authentic Memphis ribs. The table was silent while we all stuffed our faces with yummy ribs.

After we were too full to move we strolled over to see the ducks at the Peabody. We saw them splash, race and even fight a little. Super cool! Of course my big boy was the most interested!

Too full to walk any more we decided on the trolley ride down by the river. It was fun and we sat with some man that was pretty sure he had been Mrs. Martin Luther King Jr.'s driver back in the day. He looked very similar to the man on Tuck's shirt??!!

It was a very random, but TOTALLY FUN 24 hours. Thanks Tuck for having us and thanks Nate for taking us!
